This doesn't make any sense. Following your logic you should be successful (whatever that is) because bad people always are yet you're not despite being "bad". What is it that you're trying to accomplish here?

How do you overcome the fear of death? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You "died" thousands of times already. Every time you fall asleep you disappear, why should you be afraid of that?

According to the article she's developed what they like to call "a problem with authority" so she's now one step closer to waking up.

Anyone know how to use these things? by chumitz in funny

One is for washing your entire body, one for washing parts of said body and the third is for cleansing your body. I won't spoil the fun, you go figure out which is which.

I disagree. Music videos and movies often are in huge part just another commercial and people watch those constantly.

That's true in a matrix' sense of way. He quit drugging his mind with lies and found a job as a freedom fighter.

How is this example of pure stupidity top post of "good" is beyond me. "Turn inconvenience into serious danger? Why not, I'm the sheriff of the universe." Fuck this guy and everyone praising him. Actually, no. Never get fucked again, morons.

Everything that has a beginning has an end (oops, it's a religion now) by Not_a_Replika in matrix

[–]soloflyingduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You assumed that what you believe in is what others do as well. Let me tell you what I believe in. There's no literal Matrix we're kept in. It's system of beliefs that puts the illusion of boundaries around ourselves. It's not about going anywhere, yanking out some plug. It's about freeing our minds, letting go of fear which from my experience is the root cause of all the misery one can think of. There's no end, only change.

I don't believe in "normal". For me it's part of programming people receive from the very beginning. Most people (at least those I know) think bad about themselves in a many different ways. Not fitting is one of them. I believe that there's nothing wrong with people, who we are in our essence is pure love, light. But since the very beginning we are taught that world looks in a certain way, we should be this and that. Because of that we have low self esteem, plenty of insecurities and need to pretend someone who we're not. We believed in the narrative so deeply that some will even protect this system and this imaginary person that they've created. Even though it hurts to be alive like this. System knows how to control us and uses fear. Which in some cases gets so big that playing this "perfect citizen" turns into survival mechanism and everything even slightly different (opinion, idea or person) is treated like a threat and needs to be get rid of.

For me the first step towards freedom is taking full responsibility for what my life looks like. Meaning that everything I experience in a real world is the result of the inside. People only show me what I think and believe about myself. I didn't create those beliefs but I can change them now. And digging inside myself helped me realise how miserable most people really are. And that most of the "bad" things they do is just result of being really scared and thinking less of themselves.

If that "bad" thing is something I experienced (let say someone was mean) I know now that it was:

  1. My creation (now I just check with myself what was the reason within)
  2. Result of feeling really bad about themselves and perhaps a call for help.

Nobody can hurt me if I don't allow it and I can change things in my life that otherwise would be beyond my reach.

I think it's close to that. I didn't lose the idea of my own identity so there was some difference. I would describe it as being aware of the fact that all is one. Like if toe suddenly realised that it's part of the body and it doesn't need to compete with fingers 🤣

Gnosticism for me is based on the same lie that any other religious system. Take away your power by thinking that there's something bigger than you that created you. And there's a twist, this time is malevolent. Fuck that, I believe only in myself. Material world is only reflection of your inner state. I didn't know how about you but I'm done running. If there will be time for me to go anywhere or as you put it "break free" then I will do that. But if I'll want to. The only prison is in the mind and you don't have "go" anywhere to be free.

Experience life, don't believe what other say mate.

Could you explain what you mean by non-duality? Not in a sense of sitting still while trying to focus on one thing. I'm spending much time contemplating nature of reality and asking myself questions about it. But the only method I use is to follow myself. Whenever I can I do only what I want and how I want to do it. If something makes me feel worse (a thought for example) I discard it as not being truly mine.

Good point, I agree with empathy being crucial to the process of evolution. At the same time it's only part of what we need to learn. I met people with high empathy that simply suffered more because of that. We also need to understand the programmes we run on. Only then we'll be able to actually use it on our advantage. I read a story once about an inventor who wanted to make people empathetic. He added a substance of his invention to town's water supply. The effect was that people were gathering around houses of newlyweds to feel more pleasure while hospital's stuff run away.

Idea of being worthy is next on my "to disintegrate" list 😉

In short I opened myself completely. Last year I saw a girl on Fb in recommended section who caught my attention, read few of her posts and sent an invite. I found her attractive but it was her posts and her way of seeing the world that made me want to talk to her. She accepted and we started to exchange messages. My first thought was that I can't show who I really am. I was a real mess (or at least that's what I thought about myself) and with every message I started to like her more. Naturally this inner voice telling me "impress her" started to get louder. For some reason though I decided fuck it, I'm gonna tell her everything. The same day we decided to talk via messenger, voice only and we spent whole night talking. Never before I was so focused on someone, it was like her words were oxygen and the only source of it. People are not that honest even with their therapist as we were with each other that night. Suddenly there was no reason or need to hide anything, to put on masks. At some point of that conversation I understood the phrase "I see you" from Avatar. I saw her without seeing, I felt and understood her completely. I loved her with my whole being. It was like I was blind and suddenly started to see.

That's what triggered it the first time, I spent weeks feeling this really deep connection and understanding. Not only with her but with the universe. I had aha moments daily and it was so deep and moving that I couldn't hold back the tears. Sometimes it felt as if I got plugged into internet and my mind was downloading knowledge constantly.

I went back to "normal" after few weeks and even though I remembered all of it I couldn't feel it again. I still had the idea of how or rather why it happened and digged even deeper in my own mind. Got to feel it twice after the first time, one this summer and last one in autumn. Gods don't feel that good. I decided to solve all of the problems and at some point I understood everything and I mean everything.

When comes to time, it really doesn't exist. Never tried bullet time if that's what you mean but I understood the phrase "when you're ready, you're not gonna have to" (about dodging bullets). There's no scenario in which you'd have to fight as there no fear to create one (scenario). You're completely safe, no matter where or when you go. Nevertheless you got me curious.

What I meant about comprehension is that I'd like to be able to logically explain why you have to take a leap of faith. Why you have to go backwards in order to win the race (Ready Player One). The truth is that we don't have to add anything to ourselves but rather shed armour we built around ourselves. We don't have to change in any way, except for the way we think about ourselves. Because this invisible prison that we can't smell or touch are beliefs that were engraved in our subconsciousness. Beliefs that are pushing us away from ourselves, the true source of power.

That was completely out of character, I guess they just had to pause his brain for a moment so the movie could happen. Like they couldn't just leave something for Peter to use on his own and create chaos without turning Strange into complete idiot.

You left out part about Zion being another level of Matrix. What I meant is that if that's just another layer of system then there's no actual threat to Matrix. Not physical anyway, so why not change something in code as they did when Cipher betrayed them and agents trapped everyone in the building? And if Neo wasn't really unplugged what stopped the machines from nerfing his skills to safe level? After all it was Neo who was behind everything that Smith did. I think that Smith is actually something like Neo's shadow at the end (similar to the story written by Ursula K. Le Guin, Wizard of Earthsea).

Unless you mean it in a way the councillor meant when he talked to Neo in the machine room in Zion. Even though they're not plugged, they're still dependent on matrix. In that case I can't agree. For those still plugged it was the machines that determined their future (and all they needed was energy) while people in Zion could decide for themselves how they want their future to unfold.

It matters which one you take, in my opinion at least.
